Pics of where you live. Special places you go to. Your area. That type of thing.

BTW. I still have my parent's box brownie camera.

Seriously, if you need a walk through to post pics Robin1234 , I am happy to PM to you. Let me know.

I think you're right. I first used an Apple II in 1979. This was 7 years after I'd been introduced to the Brave New World of computing.

Anyone else on board other than Bevs and Elonii? A lot of people here would enjoy seeing pictures from other posters they've come to know. C'mon people!

Thanks! Sorry for my levity, I'll now resume normal service and give a straight answer.

Bl**dy iPad and iOS 9 or whatever the heck the operating system and the crappy browsers I have to work with.

Back in the day, when I used to have one of those televisions with typewriters attached (like the one in the photograph, balanced on top of the photocopier,) I used to post pictures on here, quotes, all sorts. Now that I just have an iPad, it seems it's physically not possible to do those things. I can take photos and use them in Apple programs (mail, messages, FaceTime and the like.) But if I just touch that "graphic" icon above this window, browser crashes. (Either browser, Safari or puffin.) If I have text on the clipboard, yes, I can paste it in this window. But if I have a photo or a graphic on the clipboard, it's impossible to paste into this window.

I'll keep working on it - but as the guy said last time I was in an Apple Store - you just need to buy the latest model and you'll be all set

I have absolutely no idea how I'd upload an image to this site. I tried clicking the image icon, but got asked for an url for the image. So, presumably I'd have to set up a website, then upload my picture onto it, in order to obtain an url. Way too much hassle.

Those are lovely pics, and there we go re: a Newton Stewart connection! It's a lovely area, sadly it doesn't feel like home for us so we are exploring other options over the next wee while. But there's still a chance it'll all fall into place even if we decide it's not forever!

If you use the image icon you will "hot link" to a picture that is uploaded somewhere, such as photobucket, and the thread shows the full picture, like in Nutek's funny pictures thread, but what most people seem to do is to click on the paper clip on the upper row of icons above, and the actually upload the picture to BritishExpats (like Verystormy said, attach a file), which creates the clickable thumbnail image at the bottom of your post.

HTH
